Oh, my goodness, I'm so behind. Why is that I feel like I can never catch up here!? :) We've had a ton of stuff on our plate these past couple months, but I know I need to get y'all updated on our life here, so here are some snapshots! :)
My parents came to visit in November, just before Thanksgiving. We had SO much fun together. It was such a special time. It happened to be right after our language exam, so it was the first time I really was able to put everything on the back burner and completely relax. It was wonderful and so needed!

Waiting for Grandmommy and Papa to arrive! |
|
YES! They finally made it! |
|
They arrived on my Mom's birthday, so we celebrated when we got back from the airport. |
|
Then we celebrated Thanksgiving together! It was so wonderful... the first time in 3 years that I've had help with making the food! It was a dream, having mom there with me! |
|
Getting a whole turkey here is very unusual, but we have built a relationship with our neighborhood "butcher" and we order one from him every year. This is the biggest turkey we've seen yet! :) As always, it comes with feathers and all... we plucked the best we could, but then Mom decided she could get the rest with a razor. haha... it actually worked!! |

Thanksgiving dinner. |
|
Yum! :) |
We had a great time celebrating together. Then, we packed... and the next day we left for Marbella... vacation at the beach!
